Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for February 09, 2018

Letting Spork live here.

Oh, wait, that wasn’t crazy, it was stupid.

Tony asked, about 4 hours ago

Dog socks: good idea or no?

Nah – too small for me.

Dog socks might be okay for a dog (if you have one) but no cat I know would be caught dead in them.

Good idea? I dunno.

But while Peter and Peggy seem to find it crazy, and you guys here debate its merits….

some people are already selling them.

They’re on Amazon, in pet shops, on eBay…

for dogs, for cats…. and some that seem to be…um… unipet?

People laughed at the Wright Brothers, didn’t they?

I think I’ll withhold judgement about animal socks till I find out whether any of the companies made a profit on them..

Makes money for many. https://www.petsmart.com/dog/clothing-and-shoes/shoes-and-socks/

Dog socks? nah

Dog socks??? Good Luck keeping them on them!!!

It’s not a good idea to a dog with any shred of dignity.

… and why not. Over a million Americans bought pet rocks. I always thought that talking pet rocks would go over big too and if anyone invents them remember you read it here first!

@Tony:

Nah, I prefer human socks. And now I’d prefer to ask today’s…

Second “Daddy’s Home” Question:

What was your craziest idea?

Dog socks could be entertaining. Especially on hardwood floors.

Name two? She just named four.

Most dog socks have things on the bottom for traction. When you have an old, arthritic dog they can be helpful.
